extrasolar planet approximately 59light-year s away in theconstellation of Hercules. The planet was found orbiting thestar 14 Herculis , with a mass that would likely make the planet aGas Giant roughly the same size asJupiter but much more massive. This planet was discovered on November 17, 2005 and published on November 2, 2006.

It may be in a 4:1 resonance with the inner planet14 Herculis b .See also
